Chapter 20 - Date

On the next day.

'Ugh…' Alan woke up from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the girls around him.

'Who knew that I can get used to this kind of sleep arrangement. I mean, both at the sides, one on top, it's hard to sleep like this.' Alan thought before he smelled the sweet scents from the girls beside him.

'I guess it's not that bad…They are soft too…' He thought while caressing their faces before he shook his head and snapped out of it.

"Girls, wake up. It's morning." Alan said softly.

"Erm…Let me sleep more big brother…" Mary mumbled and no one answered him which showed that they silently agreed with Mary.

Alan smiled and looked to his left. Jessica was sleeping while hugging his arm. She would sometimes sniff him and looked satisfied in her sleep.

On his right, Erica did the same as Jessica while Alice hugged her from the back. Iris was sleeping quietly on top of his head.

*Sigh* Alan sighed before he grinned. "You guys sure? Today is the weekend, I thought I want to bring you guys on a date. I guess you guys don't want to…okay then."

The girls' eyes widened opened.

"No…No…I do…I do…" Jessica quickly trying to sit while still in tranced from her sleep.

The other girls also rose from their sleep while rubbing their eyes before stretched themselves.

*Yawn* "Papa…we're going on a date today?" Iris mumbled.

Alan heard her. "Yes, dear. Now, get up and get ready. I'll make breakfast." He replied softly.

"Come, you guys too," Alan said to the girls.

The girls while yawning, groggily got out of the bed and went to their rooms to get ready.

'They are cute.' Alan thought. He quickly got ready. Today was a date. So, he prepared himself seriously.

Once done, he went to the kitchen and made breakfast.

The girls arrived at the dining room one by one. Each of them was so beautiful that almost made the butlers and maids went blind from their glow.

Jessica wore a dark blue tank top shirt coupled with a light color cardigan matched with a flower printed mini skirt. She also wore a silver diamond necklace, a silver watch and ring, sunglasses on her head, and lastly, boots at the bottom. She looked like a beautiful casual rich girl.

Erica wore a sultry red blouse and a white asymmetrical skirt that slightly shows her enchanting long legs. She also wore a heart-shaped necklace, a silver bracelet on her wrist, and white high heels. She coupled her outfits with a white handbag. Although her outfit looked simple, she looked really beautiful and elegant.

As for Mary, she wore a black shirt tucked in with her ripped jeans and a black leather jacket. She also put on her sunglasses which covered the upper part of her face, a pink watch, and lastly, a pair of white sneakers. She looked like a strong and independent attractive woman but soft-hearted inside which was shown by her pink watch. Well, that's true if she is with Alan or her family and close friends.

For Alice, she wore a black long sleeves blouse and a high waist plaid jumper skirt which was slightly higher than her knees. She put on a cute beret and a pair of light color shoes. She looked super cute.

Iris put on the new one-piece white dress that Alan made for her. She looked like a cute and innocent little Lolita.

"Wow…you guys look so pretty!" Alice praised.

"Of course, this is our first date with big brother!" Mary cheered.

"You look so cute Alice. Can I hug you?" Jessica chuckled while Erica beside her nodded agreeing with her.

"Uh…wait no!" Alice wanted to run but failed. Erica already hugged her.

"You're so cute," Erica smiled.

"How about me?" Iris flew towards them.

"Ah! Cute Lolita!" Mary said while her eyes were sparkling.

The girls laughed and chat happily while waiting for breakfast in the dining room.

Suddenly, Alan came in pushing the breakfast he made. When Alan showed himself, the girls inhaled the air strongly.

Alan wore a white long sleeves shirt that wrapped and showed his lean body nicely. He paired it with slim-to-fit black jeans and a pair of white shoes. On his wrists, he wore a black watch and several bracelets on the other wrist. His outfit made him looked more manly but he also wore a diamond earring on his left ear that complimented his feminine side. So, balance. As it was a day outing, like the girls, he put on sunglasses too.

"Hey, breakfast ready." He said while putting the food on the table.

He waited for a response but nothing. 'Hmm?' He looked up and saw the girls were entranced looking at him. He could only smile wryly. He did not make an all-out in his outfit today but the effect is still strong.

He waved in front of them. "Hello?"

Alice snapped out first, "Ah! Big brother, you looked so handsome!" She hugged Alan's left arm.

"Big brother looked like a prince charming…" Mary commented while hugged Alan's other arm.

"Papa look handsome or beautiful? I don't know!" Iris flew in front of Alan's face.

"Hehe. You look cute, Iris!" Alan said excitedly. He was almost a daughter-con.

Jessica made eye contact with Erica.

'Our man is dangerous.' Jessica signaled.

'Indeed.' Erica nodded.

Alan looked at the girls and can't help to peck their cheeks including his sisters one by one.

The girls were surprised. They blushed so hard trying to find where to hide. Erica was even twitching slightly.

'What the hell? Don't tell me she…forget it…let's pretend innocent.' He thought and pretended like he did not notice.

"Hehe…I can't control myself. All of you are so beautiful and I'm grateful that I'm blessed with you guys." Alan scratched his check.

The girls blushed harder.

"T-thank you…" Jessica said shyly while others looked dazed.

"Erm…I think I forgot something." Erica stood up and went to her room.

'Guess I'm correct.' Alan smiled wryly while looking at her.

'Maybe I need to move faster in the relationship. Hell, I'm frustrated too.' He thought again.

"So, what are we going to do today?" Alan asked. He was new in Central City and don't know where to go.

"Erm…Let's go to the movies, shopping, and then play kites… There's a lot to do, I can't wait!" Mary was gradually excited when explaining their plan for the date. Of course, her face was red.

Not too long after that, Erica came back without any extra thing that she claimed she forgot.

"Okay, let's eat." Alan smiled.

"Yay!" Iris giggled.

'So good ~" All of the girls exclaimed in their heads.

Once they were done, they went to the academy warden applying for an outing permit. Everything went smoothly as the girls were there especially Jessica who is the student president and Erica who looked at the warden menacingly.

'Hahaha…powerful girls aren't they?' Alan thought to himself. Alan was excited. Not only because of the date but also going out in Central City. Experiencing the city himself in the flesh, not by reading is exciting.

The academy is in the middle of the city. So, they just need to walk outside the academy's compound and straight away arrive in the hustle of the city.

While there were walking, Alan looked at the girls and asked.

"Hey, if Tracy is with us today it will be more fun don't you guys think so? I wonder where she is, it's been two days."

"Ah…don't worry Alan, she has a family business to deal with," Jessica said.

"Oh…" Alan replied before pondering. 'Ah yes, the war between underworld families. Hmm…if that's the case, Tracy should be fine. Her family, the Loot is one of the biggest and strongest families after all.'

Jessica saw Alan who began pondering seriously while walking knows that Alan knew what she meant by "Family business" is. Tracy told them about her family years ago when they played together as kids and made them kept it a secret.

"Don't worry Alan, everything is fine." Jessica softly said.

Alan snapped out, "Oh…alright then." He nodded before continued. "Let's go for our date!"

"Yeah! Let's go!" Alice joined the hype while others were smiling excitedly.

Once they exited the academy, a lot of skyrocket buildings can be seen surrounding them.

'Still awesome.' Alan thought while Iris's cute pair of eyes were sparkling. Unlike the others, the father-daughter duo was amazed. Alan is like an "old man" while Iris is still a "baby".

The group went for a movie first. In this world, actors were not that demanding anymore. For example, in the movie they watched, only several of the characters were done by a physical actor while the rest were just animation. Not that people can notice the difference though. The technology is hundreds of times better than old Earth.

They were given a device that connects to their nerves wirelessly which allows people to "enter" the movie.

*Sigh* "No popcorn. Such a waste…" Alan said downheartedly.

Erica covered her mouth while giggling. She was the only one who understood Alan's feelings currently. She too felt the same several hundred years ago when the new technology was first released.

After several hours, Alan and the girls went to a theme park.

"Central City Theme Park! We always wanted to go here, Mary! Yay!" Alice cheered.

"Hahaha!" Mary giggled.

"You guys already went to the academy for some time, how come never went here?" Alan asked.

"Well, no big brother no fun!" Mary smiled.

"True that!" Alice nodded while smiling.

Jessica joined, "Now Alan is here we can go play aren't we?" Jessica hugged both of them.

"Yes. Hehehe." The sisters replied.

'I love them so much.' Alan smiled before he felt someone hold his right hand.

Erica looked into his eyes while smiling. "You have families and people who love you now."

"I do." Alan smiled and then he kissed Erica's lips. Erica was stunned.

"Tasty." Alan licked his lips. "Hehehe, let's go." He dragged the petrified Erica.

"Hey, wait for us!" Alan caught up with the girls in front while holding Erica's hands who was blushing madly.

Jessica turned over and saw Erica whose face was so red. 'Hmm?' She tilted her head.

Alan caught her hand. "Come. What are you dazing for?"

"Ah, okay okay," Jessica said while being dragged.

They rode a rollercoaster, went to a hunted house, and many more. Lastly, they went to a shooting booth.

"Let's try this," Alan said.

"Eh? Big brother, you know how to use magic guns?"

"I do. Hehehe, it's been a while though." Alan replied. To protect himself, he learned and mastered many things including guns.

Alan paid, took the "guns" in each hand, and straight away nonchalantly shot the moving targets.

*Bang! *Bang! *Bang!

"Hahaha! Dual wield. Still in me." Alan laughed.

The shopkeeper was speechless. Alan only took a few seconds to knock down every target.

"Ah…Congrats. You won a VVIP ticket to the Hills Garden for a whole week."

"Oh?" Jessica lifted her head.

Alan saw her and asked. "Why?"

Jessica shook her head and smiled. "Hills Garden is a resort which is one of many businesses under my family. That ticket is limitless you can bring as many as people you want."

"Ho…then I guess we'll go there this coming holiday. How about that?" Alan suggested.

"Yes! Yes!" Alice and Mary cheered simultaneously. Erica nodded. She wanted to relax a bit too.

"Great, I also wanted to see your parents Jessica. It's been a while after all." Alan said.

'Except for her parents, her other family members need some beating. I got the side quest too.' Alan thought while grinning.

"Really? That's great! Well, my parents will be very happy. I'm not sure the others though…" Jessica, from happy to sad.

"Don't worry. I know what happened in your family. I'll settle it for you." Alan patted her head.

"Okay…" Jessica smiled sweetly.

After the theme park, they went shopping, and finally to a restaurant to end the day.

At the restaurant.

The building looked majestic from the outside showing that the place is expensive. When the group went inside, all the customers and workers were looking at them.

"It's Alan's group!" one of the customers who was also a student from the academy exclaimed.

"So handsome…"

"They are so beautiful."

*Whisper*

Alan and the girls ignored them. For the whole day, people were like this towards them. They grew numbed already.

The waiter led them to a big round table enough for the group. They sat down, ordered, and ate while chatting happily between them.

Suddenly, a quite handsome man, quiet because Alan exists, walked towards them. He ignored Alan and asked.

"Hello beautiful ladies, can I joined you guys?"

"No." Jessica coldly said. The other girls were frowning too. Alan was looking at the man amusedly.

"Aww…please? I bet I'm better than that guy." The man pointed at Alan.

The girls were furious but they held it in. The other customers were shocked by the eccentric man.

"Hoh~" Alan looked at the man while resting his head on his palm.

"You're quite brave aren't you? But I'm sorry, right now the girls and I are on a date." Alan looked amusingly at the man while rubbing his chin thinking something.

The man ignored Alan and still wanted to join but when he saw the girls still ignored him, he gave up.

"Well, I guess today is my unlucky day. See you again." He turned away and walked out of the restaurant.

'Rejoice that today is a date day with the girls. If not, you're a dead person.' Alan thought while looking at the man.

"See you again, huh? Hahahaha." Alan talked to himself while shook his head. In his past life, this kind of man such as the man just now was always short-lived.

The date went great. Well, except for the incident at the restaurant. Other than that, the girls were happy. They went back to the villa and slept.

On the next day, Tracy returned from her family business. She said everything was fine. Alan gave her the ring he made for her.

She was quite jealous that they went on a date without her. Alan promised that he will take her on a date someday.

For the rest of the day, they trained, chatted, lazed around.

After the weekend ended, they went back to class as usual. They were chatting between them while waiting for the teacher to come in.

After a few minutes, the teacher came in.

"Okay, class, today a new transfer student will join us. Come in." He said.

After a few moments, the new student came in.

"Hello, I'll be joining you guys. My name is Caym Fritz." He said.

Alan's girls frowned including Tracy who was told. Yes, this is the man at the restaurant.

Alan stared at the new student. His instinct told him that this man is not normal.

'Appraise.' He thought.

***

Character: Caym Fritz

Affection: -60 (Enemy)

***

Lo and behold, Alan was right. Many things were not right. First, this name never appeared in the novel, and second, the guy somehow was hostile towards Alan.

'Interesting.' Alan grinned.
